Mikel Arteta believes that Eddie Nketiah is “getting better and better every day” after he scored his first senior hat-trick as we beat Sunderland.
The England Under-21 international sent us into the Carabao Cup semi-finals and the boss is delighted with the way he is developing.
“Every time we have played him, he has responded with goals, with assists, with his work-rate and he continues to do so. He is getting better and better every day,” Arteta told Arsenal Media.
“He has the smell for goals. He knows where the ball is going to land, his timing, his movement around the box, the capacity he has to finish with different [finishes] like he has today. We are really happy with him.”
